Stacey Kent - I know I dream: the orchestral sessions

2017 release.

With over two million albums sold, a Grammy nomination and international recognition as one of the most successful and prolific jazz vocalist of her time, Stacey Kent stands strong among the artists that don't have much left to prove.

She surprises us once more with her album, I Know I Dream. Recorded inside the famous Angel Studios in London with an orchestra, this is her first orchestral album in a career that spans two decades and more than fifteen albums.

Meticulously produced by Tommy Lawrence and Stacey's longtime collaborator, Jim Tomlinson, the songs on I Know I Dream are arranged in a way that they transport the listeners which brings harmony and depth to the album and to the stories it tells. I Know I Dream revisits the quintessence of her repertoire and soul with three songs in French, four new compositions and five covers of Brazilian timeless classics. I Know I Dream is a majestic and smooth delight, both panoramic and intimate at the same time: a self-portrait with a big orchestra.
